i miss when the domain of badly written mafia books was confined to wattpad. honestly who is publishing this shit bc when the preteen fanfic writers get a hold of them all these “dark romance” authors r going out of business and to hell.

its one thing to be a kid writing shit like this but an ADULT ??? fully grown bitches writing and publishing and promoting utter garbage like its a job!! which it is i guess but honestly i would rather work shovelling animal feces or whatever than unabashedly producing something so laughably appalling 😭

and at this point discrimination isnt even a topic to be touched upon its practically a staple in this niche ass genre where crime families r as abundant as mommy vloggers and every girl eventually has her meg march arc.

tiktok “books” r a pyramid scheme coordinated by the government to siphon our brain cells for dangerous classified mission impossible level experiments and shit

if u enjoyed this book…im sorry babes a 7’11 guy with a fifteen inch cock and rock hard abs with a lopsided grin and a disregard for women (until u duh) and caskets overfilling with stacks who exclusively drinks whiskey or beer or scotch and rescues u from an arranged arranged marriage (a marriage not yet arranged but arranged to be arranged) by trapping u into yet another arranged marriage with (can u guess?!) his lordship is not gonna swoop along and lose all his so called self control (he cant even refrain from purposefully antagonising half the men in ur family to assert dominance) when he sees ur innocence and ur doe eyes and ur cute little bikini 🥺🥺

sorry girlies no alpha king coming to sexually assault u but oh its not sexual assault bc u liked it didnt u!! how fortunate.

There’s something about the way this book is written, that fools me, really fools me. It makes you think its enchanting and and eloquent but really its a collection of words that mean very little. Some sentences work. In fact many do, but often the ones that follow are so terribly cliche, drab and juvenile that it ruins it and you start the Stockholm from zero again. Yet, she achieves some sort of chemistry between the two and their gazes, and their erratic stomachs and bloodstreams, so I persist.

P.S I checked and the word gaze is used a whopping 103 times in the book. You never think you would but I wish Lori would have used a thesaurus that many times instead.
